Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill

If the Bill becomes law, will not the interpretation inevitably be that the House of Commons, having fought strenuously to ensure that travel arrangements and expenses were not disclosed and having lost the case, quickly came back here and changed the law? It will look as though we could not justify our decision before the Information Tribunal, so we are changing the law for our own benefit.
